About

We are shooting 'Elevator Gods', a quirky low budget comedy feature shooting in York and Bradford. Principle Sept 18th - 07 to Oct 28th. Written, produced and directed by Pete Hunt.

Pitched as 'Dodgeball' meets 'The Commitments'. Elevator Gods is a high concept, low budget, present day story, of Bradford lad Adam Teasedale - and his quest to reform his 80's Duran Duran tribute band 'The Wild Boys' to win cash to save his Bradford nightclub 'The Brad Pit'.

They compete against the underworld of the 80's tribute scene such as Spandau Cafe, Culture Pub, The League of Humans, Andy and the Ants, Depeche Vogue, and from Newcastle John Bon Geordie. - In a mighty clash or hair and ego. The star prize of £100,000, is set by two 80's obsessed lottery winners, and will save Adam's bacon if he wins.

Paul Brooks - Producer of 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding and White Noise, said the script is "terrific, a great piece of material".

Jemma Rodgers - Producer of 'The League Of Gentlemen', said "Chimping is genius" - (comedy element to the script).

We are well into talks with EMI Music Publishing, who own most of the publishing rights for the music in the film. EMI requested the promo teaser we produced which is on our website - happyourfilms.com along with the script premise.

We now have 100k in our own cash, 300k (in kind). We're shooting super 16. This is the most potent - truly independently funded Brit feature in years.
